2. From Michigan to SanDiego.. HELP!

   sdmommie replied to AMAC8487's topic in California

   It's incredibly difficult for those who live here to get a job. It's not impossible, but here's what I've been told... Scripps isn't hiring New Grads right now unless you are already a Scripps employee. Every hospital is looking at upwards of 400 ap...

3. How do I read a nursing textbook?

   sdmommie replied to SockMonkey.ecb's topic in General Students

   I skim the key headings of the chapters before the class. Paying special attention to the bold, because they are most likely going to be part of a pop quiz. During class, I make notes on the Powerpoint printout. Then, I read the chapter, making note...

   These are the things I recommend... 1) Clear your schedule as much as possible. You will need lots of time to study. Seems easy, but make sure you have not committed to lots of things in advance. 2) Get your school supplies and buy in bulk. Went...

   I got on the list January 2006. I was accepted for Fall 2008, but I had to defer for a year due to not wanting to put my child in fulltime daycare and being there for my mom as she was dying from colon cancer. I really wanted to do the Evening/Week...

9. Time Commitment during Grossmont Nursing School

   sdmommie replied to sdmommie's topic in California

   I'm confused. So, for NURS 120 last Fall, the class time listed was Monday (7:30-4:20p), Wed (8:00- 1:50p), and TWTHF (TBA). That seems like more than the 6 hours a week for this particular class. Do you select a 3 hour time slot within these time...

    sdmommie replied to sdmommie's topic in California

    Would you mind sharing the times you were actually in class or clinicals? I have a 1st grader that is in school from 7:45a-2:10p and a preschooler that I need to schedule around. I'm trying to make this work with minimal daycare costs. I really do...

    Hey Everyone, I just got accepted to Grossmont's Nursing program (yay!). I will have to arrange for childcare during the time that I am in school or on my way to clinicals (or wait until Fall 2009 for the E/W program). For those who have been throug...

    sdmommie replied to puresass's topic in California

    I was just looking at the course schedule for Grossmont. I noticed that class limit for NURS 120 night/weekend section (which appears to be for the Welcome Back Program) has been increased to 20, but there are only 3 people enrolled so far. Anybody ...
